Oink-Moo's art Reviews on Newgrounds

[Colored Circles]

I love it! It's simple and still very creative. The colors go well together, the circles create a great sense of texture, and her face is sweet and endearing. Not much else I can say, it's lovely. :)

5/5 and +Fav. Keep up the lovely work. :)

I'm trying to get more into painting myself, so I sympathize with "finding your style" and experimenting. Your style will definitely need work but that'll develop pretty naturally from the looks of it, you've already got a fairly good technique and "vision" if you will. I think personally I'd like to see a bit of the actual shapes defined more, maybe some more contrast between light/dark, and probably more "pop" to an image like this. It's wacky for sure and it made me smile, but it's just a tiny bit "weak" or something if that makes sense. Hope that helps. Keep up the awesome work. :)

Thank you, I appreciate your help

Wow! She's so cute! Very well drawn, I love your charming style and colors. :) I also very much like that she's an original. Fan art is great, but it's something else when someone creates their own complex and compelling characters and draws them well to boot. Keep up the excellent work!

It's not very exciting. The character design is neat, but as I understand it's not your own character so you don't really get any points for simply rendering someone else's design, though the technical aspect of that is fairly good. (Surely not everyone is equally good at rendering someone else's art.)

The big problem is that even as fanart, the imagery is not very dynamic: there's no background, no sense of depth, no sense of motion or intention, and no real perspective. Everything just looks kinda... flat, emotionless. Experiment with changing angles and depths, making some things closer to the viewer than others and give a sense of space that the character resides in.

Other than that, even though those are big things, you're on a good path with your technical skill. You just need to refine and expand it to produce more dynamic artwork, and of course hopefully to create something original as well. ;) Keep it up.

Thank you for the criticism. I'll look into what you said.

[Trucker Cap Mermaid]

Lovely! I love her cute little sexy body. :D The textures in this are amazing, especially considering how simple it seems. Excellent work!! +Fav, 4.5/5 and 5/5

If I didn't feel like this was trying to get me to wrap my brain around something unreachable or get me irrationally riled up it would have a very high score. I love the look of it, the style is very good and appealing to me and from a technical standpoint it's great. But I feel like there are two possibilities with this drawing: One, that there is some sort of "deep" or convoluted meaning behind this collection of things and why they're done the way they are and the artist has zero intention of the viewer understanding that motive; and two, that there is no rationale for this and that it's just a pile of imagery that the artist thought would get a "rise" out of some people and cause someone to be needlessly upset or something, or to get someone upset about there being no apparent "meaning" behind this.

As odd and roundabout as that might sound, I simply can't get those two possibilities out of my head when looking at this and to be honest, it just bores me to think about. Just the fact of how these this drawing is irritates me, as if I'm supposed to assume there's some statement being made and wonder what it is and upon not being able to decipher it be vaguely angered for some indescribable reason, and tactics such as this I find childish and, well, boring. Sorry, if I didn't get that impression this would rate a lot higher. But as of now I just find myself annoyed at what seems like a cheap attempt to aimlessly bother me.

[Whore Of Babylon]

Perfect! I love the darkness and delightfully eerie mood. Her face is a little funny, like it was hurried or something; I think my main issue is that the top of the head is in a strange spot in relation to the face, if the top center of the head were a little lower and positioned like a fraction of an inch to the right it would be much more pleasing.

Other than that tiny complaint it's beautiful. Great work.

Indeimaus responds:

Thanks for the review, yeah I really don't usually draw faces as you can tell from my other work, I would agree on it being the weakest point in this piece, but glad you like it other than that!

[spiders]

I am arachnophobic. These are very well drawn, my heart jumped a little bit when I opened it lol. That was the test for me. ;) Haha.

Great job, lovely spiders. :]

corporatefilth responds:

I actually was a gigantic faggot when it came to spiders. But after studying and drawing them so much, i kind of started to like them. Definitely not scared anymore. Its all about understanding.

[Macrossing Mina]

This is extremely adorable. I love the simplicity and the whole style of it, it's very unpretentious and honest in what it is - a simple drawing of a cute character. Very very good. :)

Dejablue responds:

Thanks!

[Commission]

Woww, i really love the style and technique on this one. The sense of depth and solidity is something that tends to be lacking in a lot of art I see here, and the colors and textures are really very pleasing and soft. The contour on the boobs of the fox woman from the lines of her shirt is a really really nice touch and very well done.

Again, really great work. Keep it up.

Thank you so much :)
